"A good business with a profit of 150,000 or 60,000 yuan", why would merchants introduce it from Vietnam to China?
However, crocodiles don't seem to be easy to raise, so why is the crocodile business doing so well?
In fact, this is not much different from raising pigs, cows, sheep and other livestock animals, and it also makes us see crocodiles as big fish and big meat since ancient times.
However, crocodiles are a very valuable animal and plant resource.
In the past, people on the mainland regarded them as turtle turtles because their shells could be used to make soup, so a large number of crocodiles swam in the mainland's waters.
Time passed, and the former little crocodile also became an "old" old-timer.
First, the survivability is super strong.
The crocodile is a living reptile that lives among drought, lizards, and birds.
Nowadays, crocodiles are only found in the tropics, where they tend to live in environments with slow flow rates, abundant aquatic weeds, and abundant aquatic plants.
Crocodiles can also inhabit environments with short fluctuations.
In general, crocodiles are nocturnal animals.
They mainly feed on small animals such as fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, etc., but also some large animals.
Crocodiles have a set of tricks at predation in the ocean.
One is that they have a keen eye, they can observe animals in the water under water in different environments.
When they spot their prey, the crocodile will sneak into the water and catch the prey in one bite by stretching its head and neck.
The second is the skill of predation.
This technique is that the crocodile can remain motionless on its prey, wait until the right time, and then suddenly pounce on it to catch it.
Crocodiles have a very good predatory skill, their mouths are very wide, and they can swallow their prey in one bite.
In this way, the crocodiles, which seem to be big fish and meat, will be devoured and digested, so that the living environment of a large number of snakes on the mainland will not be much better.
So why is the crocodile business doing so well?
Second, the research of breeding technology.
In fact, like our pigs and cattle, the reason why we raise a small number is mainly because the technical threshold is too high, and the investment cost required for breeding is also huge.
So very few people go to raise.
On the other hand, the number of eggs they lay is small, so the number of crocodiles is limited.
Crocodiles have strange habits, they are a group of crocodiles about the size of adults, they will live in groups, crocodiles usually form a group of female crocodiles and a group of male crocodiles.
Female crocodiles bury their eggs in a fine layer of sand when they lay their eggs.
The number of eggs produced at a time is about 15-120.
And female crocodiles generally only lay eggs once every 2-3 years.
Therefore, crocodiles are very precious, but despite this, the economic benefits of crocodiles are far from enough.
But crocodiles are not just because of the price at which they are sold, but because every part of the crocodile can be sold for money.
For example, crocodile bones can be made into knives, knives are also a very expensive use, and as we all know, crocodile meat is also non-nutritious.
Therefore, after raising a crocodile and killing one, there will be at least hundreds of thousands of incomes.
Therefore, there is still a certain profit in raising crocodiles, but it is difficult to raise.
The price of each part adds up, ranging from a minimum of hundreds of thousands to a maximum of millions.
Therefore, crocodile farming still has a very high economic value.
However, raising crocodiles has a high input cost.
Because the living habits of crocodiles need to be artificially simulated in the environment in which they live, it is very difficult.
And the living habits of crocodiles are also very different from the habits of our general livestock animals, so crocodiles need professional technicians to guide breeding.
When we develop a sex, then it is relatively simple to breed.
And crocodiles still need to be guided by professional personnel.
So the crocodile business is gradually doing very well.
Crocodile meat contains a lot of protein, which not only protects the skin from the external environment, but also maintains the stability and physiological functions of the human body.
If there is a decrease in protein in the human body, then the human body will have very bad reactions, such as dizziness from time to time, physical exhaustion, etc.
Protein in the human body is mainly consumed through food.
Therefore, the nutritional value of crocodiles should not be underestimated, but also very useful.
The crocodile's body contains amino acids, which can be biotransformed to make proteins in the body, which is also very important.
Amino acids also help our body make more protein.
And crocodiles also contain a type of collagen in their bodies.
Collagen can protect blood vessels, promote the health of blood vessels, prevent aging, and also maintain the structure within our skin.
It is also very important to promote the healing of the injured area.
Collagen also helps to make our bone structure healthier and stronger.
It's also very nutritious.
3. The role of crocodile skinning.
When the crocodile reaches a certain age, it can eat all the crocodile meat or directly process the crocodile skin to make a beautiful bag.
Or we can sell crocodile skins directly on the market, which can also make a lot of money.
Crocodile skin can be made into a high-end bag because it is very strong and has a very beautiful pattern.
It is also a very expensive material.
There are basically hundreds of thousands to millions of such a model on the market.
So crocodiles are a very big economic benefit in the market.
The skin of a crocodile can be made into a bag with a very high price, and we can sell it for tens of millions at will.
In Taiwan, Lotte also has a very famous brand called Penelope.
The inside of Penelope's handbags is mainly made of crocodile leather bags.
It is a very expensive brand.
Its value is also very expensive.
So we can also use the crocodile's body, not only its flesh, but also its skin.
We can make a very expensive leather bag from the skin inside the crocodile, which is also a big economic profit for us.
Or we can extract the useful parts of the crocodile's body and make a very expensive skin care product for application.
In this way, you can also make a lot of money.
The production of crocodiles is great for us.
But the technical threshold of the crocodile is a bit high.
Therefore, if you want to raise a crocodile, you need to have a lot of professional skills.
At the same time, there are certain risks associated with raising crocodiles.
Therefore, if you want to raise a crocodile, you need to conduct in-depth market research and then decide how much to breed.
epilogue
The use of crocodiles is also very large, and we can use it for food.
Or we can catch it alive and export it.
It is also possible to use its body to make a very expensive leather bag.
Of course, we can also use its useful parts to extract and make a very well-maintained skincare product.
Only when the use of the crocodile is developed can it be of great value.
